It has been thought that the unmasking of former Trump National Security Adviser Micharl Flynni and the opeing of an FBI investigation of all things Russia in which Flynn was a prime target was retaliation for Flynn’s drumbeat of criticism of the foreign policy of an Obama administration he once served.

MARK LEVIN KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE PARK: 12 Ways Progressives and Americans Differ on Public Policy
- We believe in the Constitution, they believe in centralized government.
- We believe in individualism, they believe in conformity.
- We believe in private property, they believe in collective ownership of material goods.
- We believe in prosperity, they believe in redistributing wealth with them determining who gets ripped off and who gets the drips remaining after they've taken their cut.
- We believe in separation of powers, they believe in a monolithic, all-powerful, administrative state.
- We believe in eternal truths, they believe in ideologically meandering social engineering.
- We believe in cultural stability, they believe in never-ending transformation of our society.
- We believe in real science, they believe in social science (e.g., "environmental justice").
- We believe in the rights of man, they believe in the power of centralized government.
- We believe in the moral order, they believe in situational ethics.
- We believe in individual liberty, they believe in authoritarianism, with no limits ever defined.
- We believe in education, they believe in indoctrination.
- We believe in civil society, they believe in the federal leviathan.

QOTD: "The fact is that almost the entirety of what one reads in the paper or on the web is speculation. The writer isn't telling you what happened, he is offering an interpretation of what happened, or offering a projection of the future. The best scenario is that these theories are novel, compelling, informed, and based on reporting and research. But that is rarely the case. More often the interpretations of current events, and prophesies of future ones, are merely the products of groupthink or dogma or emotions or wish-casting, memos to friends written by 27-year-olds who, in the words of Ben Rhodes, "literally know nothing." There was a time when newspapers printed astrology columns. They no longer need to. The pseudoscience is on the front page.
Nor are the empty conjectures and worthless hypotheses limited to Donald Trump. Yes, pretty much the entire world, myself included, assumed he would lose to Hillary Clinton. Indeed, a not-insignificant segment of the political class, both Democrat and Republican, thought the Republicans would not only lose the presidency but also the House and Senate. Oops! I remember when, as the clock reached midnight on November 8 and it became clear Trump would be the forty-fifth president, a friend called. "Are we just wrong about everything?" he asked." --Matthew Continetti

NOT SO SPECIAL COUNSEL: Time for POTUS to fight fire with fire
John Eastman, law professor at Chapman University, writes in American Greatness this week that the powers invested in Special Counsel Mueller to investigate "Russian hacking/collusion/obstruction poses grave dangers to our body politic and our liberty." His advice to President Trump: Fight fire with fire. Turn the law and the courts back on your opponents. Trump is being investigated without any probable cause of a crime. The Obama administration, in contrast, is a target-rich arena of criminal activity.

HOLY CRAP: Debbie Wasserman Schultz Accuses Top Obama Official of Lying to Congress
Florida Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz accused ex-DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson of lying under oath when he said the DNC refused the help of the DHS in their hacking scandal.
Johnson said during testimony in front of the House Intelligence Committee Wednesday that the Democratic National Committee refused DHS help with Russian hacking and opted not to turn over their hacked servers.
However, in a Thursday interview on CNN, Wasserman Schultz accused him of being “misinformed,” and said the DNC was never even made aware that their network had been compromised.
DEMOCRAT #RESISTANCE: Mobilizes Against... Nancy Pelosi
I wanted to highlight one specific criticism Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-NY) made about her party’s leadership today, particularly in light of Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s self-righteous rant a few minutes ago.
For a party that constantly makes sanctimonious charges against Republicans for being stuck in the past, it sure doesn’t sound like the Democrats’ current leadership is open to change – or input from anyone under the age of 65 who hasn’t been in power for decades.

QOTD: "...the narrative with Bernie Sanders is he's for the people, he just wants everyone to get a fair break, he thinks the rich take advantage of the middle class and the poor and people should have free healthcare and free college and so forth and so on. Bernie Sanders is a radical Marxist who believes in violence, there I said it -- every radical Marxist believes in violence, every radical Marxist believes in violence. Can you think of one country where the radical Marxists have taken over the governments that isn't violent? Oh I know they preach humanity and compassion and equality and helping the poor, and the middle class, and all -- but can you show me one Communist country that is any of that, that is any of that. Show me one Communist country that is not in effect a police state. You going to show me China? It's a police state. you have no free access to the internet, there's no free speech and so forth and so on. You're going to show me Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea? What? And yet socialism is an off shoot of Communism, it certainly is. They're different degrees and they are violent -- the communists." --Mark Levin

The Complete List of Nicknames for Veep's Jonah Ryan
He stated, without hesitation, HBO's Veep.
During the course of the series, Jonah Ryan -- tall, geeky, socially awkward, and (weirdly) also possessing delusions of grandeur -- makes the transition from low-level White House staffer to... Congressman.
The staffer I was schmoozing with said that Ryan's unlikely ascendancy, through a bizarre series of events, was entirely plausible. He said most Congressmen he knew were complete dunces and made Ryan look like Einstein.
